Donald Sutherland discovered the waterfall in 1880 and he was the first to focus his eyes on the beautiful waterfall. With a striking lake at the top of the falls and mountains set in the background there, it is a really good view. Detian Falls This waterfall is on the border of China and Vietnam. It is about 300 feet wide, 164 feet high and comes from Guichun Boundary River. Located in the foreground are beautiful rice and vegetable fields and the background is nothing but the jungle. While Detian Falls may be great, it is not respected as one of the best waterfalls on the planet and we think that isn't fair. Gocta Falls While Gocta Falls has been an important place for the locals of Peru for centuries, it wasn't really known to the rest of the world until 2005! This is an unbelievable fact that Gocta Falls is among the five highest waterfalls on the entire planet, about 2,490 feet high. This is probably the farthest trip on the list but the views are worth it. McWay Falls McWay Falls is located on the Central Coast of California near Big Sur. While this water-fall looks completely tiny compared-to many others on this list, it is still a worthwhile destination. This waterfall is only 80 feet high but it feeds into a beautiful bay right off the Pacific Ocean. With the endless ocean to your left, a waterfall to your back, and comfortable rocks keeping you in the bay, there is no more beautiful place to be. 1．What can we see in front of Detian Falls?

(前面是美丽的稻田和菜地，后面是丛林)”可知，在德天瀑布前面我们能看到农作物。故选D项。 2．C【解析】细节理解题。根据Gocta Falls中“While Gocta Falls has been an important place for the locals of Peru for centuries, it wasn’t really known to the rest of the world until 2005! (虽然戈克塔瀑布几个世纪以来一直是秘鲁当地人的重要场所，但直到2005年它才真正为世界所知)”可知，戈克塔瀑布在21世纪变得举世闻名。故选C项。 3．D【解析】细节理解题。根据McWay Falls中“This waterfall is only 80 feet high but it feeds into a beautiful b ... ...
